Divorce Invitation Page #8
So you do know him!
- Did you just lie to me?
- I mean... I don't exactly know...
F*** you!
How dare you f***ing lie to
me on my f***ing wedding day
before my f***ing honeymoon?
So, a young Jewish couple
gets successfully divorced,
but the wife says to the judge,
"Now I have to apply for a get."
And the judge says, "Get what?"
She says, "No, that's the name for a
Jewish ceremony which is for a divorce."
And he says, "Oh, I understand.
In other words, you mean like a bris."
She says, "Yes, except that
in a bris, it's one thing.
In a get, you get to get rid
of the entire schmuck."
Hey, there. You and me... divorce
ceremony. Thanks. Come here.
Look what he brings me...
a divorce invitation.
Hi. I would like to
invite you to my divorce.
Is it true you're actually
seeking a divorce from Dylan?
No comment.
You are coming to
my divorce. Be there.
Hey, Paul and Amber.
Divorce invitation.
I'll see you there, okay?
Oh, my god! It's Mike!
Oh, my god! Mike!
I'm so happy you're here! I was
hoping that you were gonna come.
I saw you on the cover of that
one magazine. Is this for me?
You're coming to my divorce.
See you there.
I think I'm gonna bring a plus-one because
I didn't bring anyone the last time.
Joseph Armstrong in the house!
an open bar, but this time,
You know what I mean?
And I'm done! That's it!
According to the
prenuptial agreement,
it is incumbent upon the person
who initiated the divorce
to invite all of those who attended the
original wedding... minus 10 percent.
Mr. Christian has done
this successfully.
As decreed in the
prenuptial agreement,
Mrs. Christian must sign
the divorce petition.
Well...
congratulations to you, Mike.
I didn't think you could pull it off.
I have...
never had such a strong bond
with anyone as I have with you.
I have never been so in love.
And I thought you felt the same way.
I guess I was wrong.
In the past few weeks,
I've seen how much trouble
Mike has gone through to
get all of you here today.
He has shown tremendous
persistence to end this marriage
and unite with Alex.
Maybe that means she
deserves him more than I do.
And now, according to the
prenuptial agreement...
Mr. Christian will reveal
his reasons for a divorce.
Thank you, Dylan.
And thank you, all, for coming today
and sparing your valuable time for me.
Getting all you here was no easy task,
I can assure you that.
It was no fun having doors
slammed in my face,
getting the evil eye on the street,
being spat upon, punched in the face,
and told I am a horrible person
for deserting my pregnant wife.
This little... event was not my idea.
It all happened because Dylan slipped
a little clause in our prenup...
a clause I never bothered to read.
had to face this sh*t storm
and see all of you, but I did.
And today, I am a winner...
A winner not just because
I got my way, but...
because I made the journey.
I followed through on this.
It was a journey of meeting people,
talking with them,
reasoning with some,
arguing with others,
listening to their pains,
their turmoils,
their successes, their failures,
their mistakes and their regrets...
their life lessons.
Now, I was mad at Dylan for
making me come here today.
I thought she was a selfish,
stubborn woman...
Until I ran into a single mom with
five kids who asked me a question.
She said, "What if Dylan
had instigated the divorce?
Would she have to go
through the same hell?"
So, I read the prenup again, and...
sure as sh*t, she'd have to go
through the same hell I did.
That's when I realized that this
clause wasn't evil after all.
It was fair... to both of us.
And it was fair to our unborn
child that the parents
aren't gonna just walk
away from each other.
I realized that this...
this long journey that I had to take
was the perfect counseling for
a torn, confused man like me.
When I put on this suit today,
I was reminded how I
felt on my wedding day.
I've been thinking a lot about
the word "love" lately.
Love is a...
Powerful emotion.
Love is this...
indescribable feeling you
get when you see someone
who you know will do
anything for you...
When you see someone with a life
growing inside of them,
a life you helped create.
Love is sticking it out.
Living with someone day after day,
waking up next to them every
morning with their bad breath
one side of their head,
and you just look at
them and you think,
"God, she's beautiful."
That's love.
Dylan, I've given you every
reason not to love me...
And only one reason to.
I love you.
You once said to me, you said,
if only your thesis could
change one person...
It did.
I'm sorry, Alex.
I have to do this.
So, in front of all of you...
I am begging you, Dylan,
to please forgive me for all the
pain that I have caused you.
Dylan, will you remarry me?
Yes!
Yes, but...
You're gonna have to work for it.
I promise.
Mazel Tov!
All right, now listen up! Now...
- All of you who had sex last night...
- Yeah!
Let's go! Step up!
Get your picture ta... oh!
Couple late bloomers.
Couple late bloomers. Okay, okay.
No kissing and telling, buddy.
All right, now...
Those of you who had
sex with the groom!
Somebody got to be in with the groom!
- Sorry, Dylan. Oh!
- Okay, mama.
Yeah, come here.
Thanks for playing.
All right, now, those of you
who were screwed by the groom.
Yeah!
Pick your head up, buddy.
Pick your head up, buddy. Come on.
Smile about it. It's a celebration.
All right. All right. A good sport.
Now, those of you...
Who screwed the groom,
big-time. Somebody did.
Okay, all right.
- Hurted me more than it hurted you.
- Might need some counseling on that one.
All right, now, those of you,
who, unfortunately...
saw the groom butt naked
having sex. That was us!
That was us! Get in there.
- You know what?
- Michael... don't touch him.
Stay away from him.
Stay away from him.
All right, now, those of you...
Who would like to go on a honeymoon
with the groom, come on down!
- Yeah, see? She wants to go.
- Here they... boy, they... oh!
- I'm starting to think something here.
- You love it. And once you go Mike,
you don't go anywhere else.
- There something you want to tell me?
- No. No, there's nothing. There is nothing.
Okay, just making sure.
Last but certainly not least...
I feel like we all want to do this...
who wants to go on a
honeymoon with the bride?
That's all of you! That's everybody!
- That's all of you! You're kidding me!
- No! She is mine! No! She's mine!
No! Absolutely not!
Get it, man!
